Than a Texan on ice!

Weathemen on all local channels predicting ice and snow mix in the Metroplex on Monday.

Too early to panic, but will probably call in sick on Monday.

Any suggestions for combating cabin fever?

James ,,Ice Fishing ! Come on up .lol

Wouldn't a cure for cabin fever in your case be called "Nancy"?

ChrisinMO · Feb 3, 2010

Gotta be locked down longer than a couple of days to qualify as cabin fever, in my book. If you do get an ice storm, go outside and chip some ice. Then come in and get some hot chocolate and do a jigsaw puzzle. Of course, if your power goes out, you might have to figure out something else.

Good luck.

little while goes by and he hears this bellowing voice "THERES NO FISH UNDER THE ICE"
figgurin he was just hearing things, he keeps fishin.
little while later he hears it again...."THERES NO FISH UNDER THE ICE"

It is a tossup who is more stupid, the weather 'forecaster' with his idiotic predictions accompianied with the breathless panic, or the useless gd yankees who move down here, and are too stupid to know what to do, how to dress, how to drive, without being told.

ILLEFTY · Feb 3, 2010

If you want solution for cabin fever. Just start telling Nancy whats she doing wrong with cleaning the house and make suggestions on how she can improve on it. You'll soon not have to worry about cabin fever.

If you have to be stuck at home, might as well use the time to get your taxes done. There is nothing like an unpleasant task for an unpleasant time. Then when the weather is better you can be enjoying yourself outside.

It might not work for you since you're married but last evening I spent quality time with some really lovely ladies. Patti, Kathy, Dorothy, Diane, Ann, Janet, Peggy, Christine, and Phyllis.

Aka--The Lennon Sisters, The McGuire Sisters, Patti Page, and Ann Murray.

Love the true harmony sung in a manner that you can understand every word unlike the shouting into a microphone world of today.

Always impeccably dressed with a wonderful squeaky clean persona.

Thanks YouTube for the videos of these lovelies.
The Lennon Sisters sing for you.

Nancy will either toss him out of the house, or worse still, make him do the house work....lol.

An ice rink is about the only place in Texas that you will find ice thick enough to safely walk on.

Ice is kinda hard to deal with we usually stay inside till it melts usually in a day.

Snow can be fun though I like it about knee deep kinda hard to fall and iffin ya do,-- don't hurt much.

Probably not much use fer tire chains down there so I suggest ya get a length of Hemp rope and a couple rolls of "duck" tape and wrap yer wheels for greater traction.but probably by the time ya got ready to go the ice would be gone anyway <}:>)}

I still hope to be one of those gd yankees to leave this wretched climate(that's what makes us this way) and come on down and visit you all for the winter. So watch out.

JMS/.MN · Feb 3, 2010

How to drive? That"s just too funny. I drove through the Tennessee ice storm last Fri nite and Sat morning, and the three dozen cars in the ditches all had Tennessee plates. So did the morons passing us and fishtailing before flying off the highway. Meanwhile, the MN, Ill, MI plates kept moving along. Funniest thing was the tv announcement that all (both?) plows were pulled off the highway so the drivers could get a good nite"s rest and plow the next day. If they had stayed out there, and scraped off the road, it would not have been a frozen washboard the next morning.

kito169 · Feb 3, 2010

Now that"s funny, I don"t care who you are.

ericlb · Feb 3, 2010

ohhh yes there is, lol living here we have had texans come up here to ski for decades, pretty funny watching them drive, better than tv, we thought nothing would top their antics!... we was wrong, now we got all kinds of people here from southern california, only snow they've seen is on tv, after watching these people, you texans are right nice folks, plum normal in fact lol

ericlb · Feb 3, 2010

forgot to start the war, seeing as how ive seen both, texas cowgirls, and california beach bunnys,up close, i got to say y'all texans got the best lookin girls lol

When I was in Texas as the guest of the US Air Force, the most fun us yankees had was watching the locals trying to "drive" on ice. 9th, 10th and some other streets had a nice slope toward downtown. People would try to cross these streets and slide down hill at a good pace. And once the weather warms up, God trys to get the people to leave by sending a few twisters down on them. And they liked to put down the yankees? I was not there by choice and left as soon as I could.

James Howell · Feb 3, 2010

Thanks for the music; real talent is hard to come by these days.

Of course being a native Texan, love to see women with "big" hair.

Here's <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShIR-639GnY">three sisters</a> from Texas that posess both beauty and musical talent.

James Howell · Feb 3, 2010

Now that's not funny.

It's hilarious!

Can't wait till it warms up a little to go <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noodling">noodling</a>.

I once heard that if Texans were meant to ski, bullsh!t would be white.

James Howell · Feb 3, 2010

I'm what's know as a Step-Aggie.

Several years ago the college I attended, East Texas State University, became part of the Texas A & M system.

The "A" stands for Agriculture and the "M" stands for Military.

Oh well, I've done both agriculture and military so all is OK.

Where does "than a woman scorned" fit on the scale.

ericlb · Feb 4, 2010

thats true, there was a bumper sticker around here stating that years ago, some wise acre came up with a reply ; texans were meant to ski, they came to ruidoso, there the bullsh-- and snow are both texas size

greenbeanman in Kansas · Feb 4, 2010

Thanks, those gals really crank out some great music. Enjoyed the singing and the fiddle playing as well as the bass and guitar. All very good.

Enjoyed the Warren Buffet clip with them as well.

Billy Shafer · Feb 4, 2010

James remember the old blue haired ladies with the bullet proof hair. Covered in Midnight in Paris perfume.
